Hey there, footie fanatics! Here's a little sneak peek into the clash between
FC Volendam and
Roda JC in the Dutch Eerste Divisie. Get comfy, 'cause I've got some juicy gossip to share on these two teams and what we might expect come kickoff on May 2nd, 2025.
FC Volendam overview
FC Volendam’s got that roller coaster vibe going on lately, with their form being as bright as their orange kits. They've snatched victory in 4 out of their last 5 outings, strutting their stuff like peacocks in games such as the 4-0 thrashing of Jong PSV and the slick 0-2 away win against Jong Ajax. Keep your eye on Barry Lauwers, a defensive dynamo, and Robert Muhren, the lethal finisher - these lads have been painting the town with goals and solid performances. But let’s not forget about Bilal Ould-Chikh, whose ability to dazzle defenses can leave your head spinning.
They’ve been fairly sturdy at the back, but my gut feeling tells me that their unpredictability can catch them on the wrong foot now and then. Moving into the final third, their attacking flair is often their ace. But hey, will it be enough to tackle the sturdy
Roda JC?
League schedule announced
1st Division drops back into focus now, and I’m listing out what’s coming up—few matches predictions worth pondering over. Teams are gearing up, no grand fuss, just that quiet hum before they lock horns. At all, here’s the happen next. TOP Oss tangle with Vitesse, 02 May 2025 — two sides that don’t mess about. Den Bosch line up opposing Helmond Sport at 02 May 2025, await goals flying if they’ve got their shooting boots on.
That’s the lot laid out—enough to get your head spinning. 1st Division doesn’t lie—if you’re leaking goals in April, you’re in trouble .
Roda JC overview
Flipping the page over to
Roda JC, and things are looking a bit like a mixed bag – one draw, one win, and three losses in their last five games. They’ve been struggling to find the back of the net, suffering a bruising 4-1 loss to Venlo and a 3-0 setback against Vitesse Arnhem, though pulling off an essential 1-0 win against Emmen shows they’re not easily written off.
Standout fella Nils Roseler is a rock at the back, with Rodney Kongolo's clever play in the midfield also being a ray of hope. Niek Vossebelt's leadership might just tip the scales for
Roda JC, especially when they hit home turf, where the fans' roars almost become a 12th man.
Fun tidbit for you stat lovers – Roda’s ability to bounce back on occasion mirrors
FC Volendam. After losses, they seem to dig deep, aiming for that comeback.
H2H stats
Diving into the head-to-head stats, things are all square, with both teams sharing the spoils – 3 wins apiece with 5 ending in a stalemate over their past 11 meetings.

Summary and Prediction
Alright, here's where it gets spicy. From my perspective,
FC Volendam's recent spell of form seems to give them the edge, especially how they're scoring goals for fun – a cheeky 2-1 win for them sounds about right.
Roda JC, though solid, might find it tough to stem the orange tide, particularly on Volendam’s home patch.
If you’re considering a flutter, I'd be leaning towards a “both teams to score” bet – my gut says they'll both find the net. May the odds be ever in your favor, and fingers crossed it’s a cracker of a match. Cheers, and happy punting!
